About this ebook

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Before Herodotus travels to many different places and sees many different things, he will appear in a lecture on ancient Greece delivered twice weekly to the first-year students in Warsaw University’s department of history. He will just as quickly disappear. #2 The Histories of Herodotus, a book written about two and a half thousand years ago, was translated into Polish in the mid-1940s. But the book was suddenly halted due to the atmosphere of fear that existed following the death of Stalin. #3 A person consumed by allusion will reach for Herodotus. He will find allusions everywhere, from the Histories, which consists of nine books. Each one is a pile of allusions. #4 I was a novice reporter for a newspaper called Sztandar Młodych. I was assigned to follow the trail of letters sent to the editor back to their points of origin. I wanted to cross the border and come right back, but I didn’t know how to do it.
